Mixed-source
- ARIN allocated 83 IPv4 blocks from cleared inventory to Waiting List requestors on 2 July; the next distribution is scheduled for October.
- With the global IPv4 free pool exhausted since 2011, the waiting-list process remains essential for organisations still reliant on IPv4 connectivity.
What happened: IPv4 waiting list distribution
ARIN fulfilled 83 requests from its IPv4 Waiting List on 2 July 2025, distributing blocks from the 62 cleared IPv4 blocks previously announced. These allocations mark the second quarter distribution of the year, with the next expected on 1 October 2025.

Why it’s important
IPv4 addresses continue to be a critical yet scarce resource, with full depletion since the early 2010s. By managing the waiting list and reissuing returned or reclaimed blocks, ARIN ensures that remaining IPv4 space is allocated fairly and predictably through a transparent process.
This distribution highlights the continued relevance of IPv4 in global networks, despite ongoing IPv6 adoption. Organisations still relying on IPv4—particularly those in legacy systems or industries with slower IPv6 uptake—depend on these allocations to maintain uninterrupted connectivity.
